Is John Edwards Rielle Hunter's baby daddy? We may never know
LA Times ^ | 8/10/08 | Liz Snead

Posted on 08/10/2008 2:29:26 PM PDT by pissant

Saturday, Hunter's lawyer, Robert Gordon, issued a statement saying, “Rielle will not participate in DNA testing or any other invasion of her or her daughter's privacy now or in the future."

JohnedwardssonSo I guess Edwards is pretty much off the hook on that offer to take a paternity test. Is that why he so freely offered to take one?

But Edwards better not make her angry... oh, maybe by not giving her what she wants, forgetting her birthday, not paying enough attention to her, or by not marrying her in a few years...

She could so change her mind. Talk about leverage.

Edward finally 'fessed up to a 2006 affair with the new age spiritualist who believed she could help Edwards change the world. But he insisted that he was not the father of Hunter's 5-month-old daughter, Frances Quinn Hunter.

He also said that he did not pay her or the former Edwards campaign staffer who has publicly said he is the father. The birth certificate lists no name under "father."

In his statement (and in his TV interview with ABC), Edwards said, “I am and have been willing to take any test necessary to establish the fact that I am not the father of any baby, and I am truly hopeful that a test will be done so this fact can be definitively established.”

"Truly hopeful." Yeah, right. Do we believe him?

What do you think? Is Edwards the father?

To read more about this from Andrew Malcolm, who first wrote about Edwards' affair in October 2007, go to Top of the Ticket.

I wouldn’t call Obama a new aged spiritualist, despite his being Larry Sinclair’s coke ho.

Now we know why it took him 3 weeks to address the issue after National Enquirer caught him. He had to load up suitcases of laundered cash.

From a website called, "AltMuslim.com":
"...speaking of hypocrisy, and the southside of chicago- and barak obama- one time i went to the bud milliken parade ( a very big event- about 6 hours long) and at one point- michelle obama appeared waving on top of an escalade, she was wearing torn jeans, a drumpled semi dirty t-shirt half tucked in and out- and her hair was crazy undone- then she made a small speech- and actually referred to barak as her "baby daddy" (not baby's daddy even you'll notice)

some of the crowd bought it- but i thought it was really over the top in the way of pandering, as i knew she was going to a state dinner that evening and can only assume her demeanor and dress would morph accordingly."
http://www.altmuslim.com/a/a/e/2676/

#1 Definition of "Baby Daddy", from urbandictionary.com:
"Usually a broke ass black man; Who you met through a friend and had sex wit when you was upset and confused. Now you don had his baby and he dont pay child support and denies yo son ray ray. He just my baby daddy"
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=baby+daddy

CNN transcript:
WOLF BLITZER: We can take a look. Maybe he will and maybe he won't but she looks like she's about to introduce him. Let's listen in.
MICHELLE OBAMA: "My baby’s daddy Barack Obama. Yeah!"
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0411/02/se.06.html

#1 Definition of "Baby's Daddy", also from urbandictionary.com:
"A guy who is a lousy father, who gots one or more kids with one or more chicks and, thinks he's a pimp. And instead of takin care of the baby he goes out an finds another chick to ****. Until she too becomes just another baby's momma and he moves on. So on and so forth."

girl one: "Who is that?"
girl two: "That's my dumbass baby daddy and his dumb ho"

From ABC News...
Marry Your Baby Daddy Day!
One Woman Wants to Bring Marriage Back to the Black Community

"This was not the historical norm. Most black kids were born to married parents until the time when President Johnson promised to end poverty. Perhaps because poor people were offered more government aid, moms had less need for a husband. Some mothers could lose a welfare check if their husband made money. People respond to such incentives, and the out-of-wedlock birthrate has continued to grow across the board, but especially among blacks.

'There is no stigma anymore in the black community about having a child out of wedlock,' said Reid, which led to the creation of Marry Your Baby Daddy Day. For those who don't know, Reid explains that 'a Baby Daddy is simply...an unmarried father. But they've become caricatures in the ghetto.'

The con-woman changed the con-man John's world, Elizabeth's world, their kids world, the rest of their respective families world and their friends world.

A scumbag lyin' lawyer, politician doesn't change our world. It remains constant, intact, ...& GRRRRRREAT!

I could care less. He’s just another POS and like so many others in the Dhimmy party will suffer no consequences. Give them time, just like his wife, they’ll have all the excuses they need.

We will know. She won’t keep her mouth shut for long especially if he keeps saying he doesn’t love her in public.

Probably part of the agreement when she realized she was knocked up.

Is John Edwards Rielle Hunter's baby daddy?

And does Duncan know who his daughter has been associating with?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Yes, we may never know. The good news is that we will, almost certainly, never care that we never know. I, at least, will sleep soundly understanding the wisdom behind this statment.

My Greta & National Enquirer loving wife may, OTOH, suffer somewhat. That is life.
